Mod. 1926 .44 HE Military, post-WW2 Transition, 6-1/2"
On this thread 1950 Military 44 value, our fearless leader made this comment, which reminded me I haven't shared my .44 HE Military.

So here goes. This is a look at my long action post-WW2 transition .44HE Military with its 6-1/2" barrel:
It's a former working revolver and shows honest use. No lint from the sock drawer on this one! It's one that is not often seen.

That is most excellent, Captain! Eight units in this config? Maybe an LEO order?

A friend of a friend wants to bring me some revolvers his girlfriend inherited from her father so I can tell him what they are. Your post started a day dream fantasy scenario where he shows up with one just like yours 
Be still my beating heart !!
